Industrial hemp licensing statistics

The Industrial Hemp Regulations (IHR) define "industrial hemp" as a cannabis plant – or any part of that plant – in which the concentration of THC is 0.3% or less in the flowering heads and leaves. A licence from Health Canada is required to possess, cultivate, sell/provide, process, produce a derivative, import and/or export industrial hemp.

As per subsection 26(1) of the IHR, a holder of a licence that authorizes cultivation, other than as a plant breeder, must sow only seed of pedigreed status that is of an approved cultivar listed on Health Canada's current List of approved cultivars.

A licence was issued to a specific site where more than one regulated activity may be conducted. A licence holder might have been granted licences for multiple activities at multiple sites. As per the Section 56 Class Exemption in place prior to October 17, 2018, a licence could have provided a blanket authorization for cultivation of industrial hemp at any site. Registration of the cultivation site information was required and could have been submitted to Health Canada either at the time of licence application, or within 15 days after seeding on the "Notification of Cultivation of Industrial Hemp" form. A site where only cultivation occurred was called a "Registry", and was not issued a licence.
